Smoker at the Riverside House, 1900

 New Jersey Courier 4 Jan 1900



Harry Eno is probably the son of Byron Eno, who ran a hotel in Lacey.  He was born Aug 1869 in PA and worked as a 'hotel proprietor'.
He lived (probaby at the hotel) with parents, Byron E. and Mary), as well as sister Bertha (b. Sep 1871), brother Russel (b. May 1878),
and Katie A. (who is Byron's daughter in law, though it's not clear on the census if she's married to Harry or Russel). There is a young 
Byron E. (not yet 1), though again, it's not clear who's son he is. 

R.C. Eno could be Harry's brother, Russel.

 Daniel Holmes appears a few entries away from the Eno hotel on the 1900 census in Lacey.  He was born Dec 1869, and lived with his mother, Carolyn,
and sister, Lydia B. (b. Aug 1877), and aunt Margaret Jeffrey (b. Mar 1841).

It is not clear who Dr. Wallace is---I found a lot of Wallaces in Lacey in 1900, but none of them were doctors. Likewise with Eugene Bunnell--while
that family name is common in Ocean County, I couldn't find anyone by that first name in Lacey in 1900.


Orian Lane lived near the Eno hotel in 1900.  He was born Jul 1875 to Richard (b. Apg 1839) and Catharine E. (b. Mar 1851), whom he lived 
with, working with his father as a house painter.  His mother was a dress maker.  Catharine had given birth 7 times, with six suriviving children,
though only Orion still lived at home. A servant, Mabell HOrner (b. Jul 1877), as well as a boarder, Gilbert Wallace (b. Oct 1873),
also lived in the home.

B.B. Worden is likely Benjamin B. Worden (b. Sep 1869 in NJ), who lived in Lacey in 1900 with his wife of 9 years, Emily G. (b. Mar 1860) and 
their only child, James B. (b. Sep 1896). Benjamin was employed as a telegraph operator.

Walter c. Ladd was born Jun 1876 in PA, and lived in 1900 with his adopted parents in Lacey, Joseph Lad (b. Mar 1824), and Sarah A. (b. Aug 1824 in CT).
He worked as a brakeman on the railroad.
